sako751sg Posted September 11, 2011 Report Share Posted September 11, 2011 They sure are.Its a shadow of the Boks team from the last WC and Wales are ripping into them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bullet boy Posted September 11, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2011 Win for the Boks but they were very ordinary indeed!Wales IMO were the better team throughout the game and I'm sure are gutted with the loss! Well done Wales on the performance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well done Wales on the performance! I said a couple of days back watch Wales they might be a dark horse. A hard game, the last kick was unlucky. Can you imagine how exhausted both sides must have been by the end? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVB Posted September 11, 2011 Report Share Posted September 11, 2011 I didn't watch the England game. My wife put the TV on at one point. I asked what the score was. "59:18" She says. "great" I think. A stonking win. Then she says it's 60:24. Only then do I realise she was watching the clock. Back to the reality of a ground out dull win. Wales looked good. May have peaked though.

bullet boy Posted September 11, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2011 It was an enjoyable game to watch and I thought Wales deserved to win as they were the better side I thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
durbsguy Posted September 11, 2011 Report Share Posted September 11, 2011 The problem the boks have is that we are still playing 10 man rugby. Morne Kick Steyn lived up to his name yet again or should that be Morne "can't tackle" Steyn. Bring on Lambie or James for running rugby.

haggis Posted September 11, 2011 Report Share Posted September 11, 2011 Although disappointed by Englands mediocre performance today, hearing a commentator say 'come on England' cheered me up. Sod the Argies and everyone else, if they don't want to hear supportive commentary then press the mute button. And I think England will win, because I would never doubt or bet against my own country! SWING LOW! Well said that man! England for me...... but I hope Samoa get a bit further this time and they beat the Aussies recently. I love thier hard tackles and physicality of the way they play great to watch,hope they smash the Taffs to pieces! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BenBhoy Posted September 12, 2011 Report Share Posted September 12, 2011 we certainly were the better team, but you have to be able to finish games off, especially when you get a chance against the big teams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bullet boy Posted September 14, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2011 Scotland struggled to break down a physical Georgia side today and need to up their game! I really hope Ireland give the Aussies a game on Saturday.Cmon you Paddy's!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bullet boy Posted September 17, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 17, 2011 Australia v Ireland this morning is an exciting encounter.Ireland are due a big game but I think the Aussies will just nick it.Cmon Ireland. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bullet boy Posted September 17, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 17, 2011 Ireland the better side IMO.Irish forwards are good fairplay-O'Brien and Ferris are excellent!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guest1957 Posted September 17, 2011 Report Share Posted September 17, 2011 Ireland appear to lack the confidence to finish anything. Given how poor the kicking is this WC they need to play the penalty advantage more and see what comes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sako751sg Posted September 17, 2011 Report Share Posted September 17, 2011 Outstanding defence.Pity Bowe hadnt finished it the now but the crims wont win now.Not the best game but Ireland has tackled and scrummed them off the park. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bullet boy Posted September 17, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 17, 2011 Ireland absolutely brilliant!I said if they could put Blooper I mean Cooper under pressure then the Paddy's would have a chance!!What a win-that has made my day BIGTIME!!

ollie Posted September 17, 2011 Report Share Posted September 17, 2011 Great result for us. If we can finish off the group and finish top it sets up a potential quarter final with Wales, which would be great for the Northern Hemisphere.

Ollie you should be proud of Ireland today mate and i know you are!!They were simply top draw today.I told my mates in work about Ireland,and told them that I know they lost to England and France in the WC warm-ups but I knew they were due a BIG game and that certainly was today. Just had a txt off one of my mates saying I was right what I said!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
